With eight buildings pieced together from 59 modules, High Tech High serves 500 students in San Diego’s South Bay. The charter school covers 32,807 sf; a steel canopy connecting the buildings adds another 12,645 sf. William Scotsman provided the modular units, and San Diego-based contractor BYCOR assembled them. Earning LEED Gold certification, High Tech High features light fixtures with motion-control sensors, low-VOC paint, high-density fiberboards made from recycled newsprint, and locally available materials.
